Anime Crossover: My Cheat Code is Myself

Page 324

His tone was extremely relaxed, as if he had already thought of a solution to the problem.

"Could it be that Xia Yanjun has already thought of a solution?!" Suzuki Satoru's eyes lit up, and his body was filled with an excited aura of despair.

Although in the game he chose a purely skeletal appearance out of role-playing whims, in reality, as a virgin, he was clearly still somewhat bothered by his absurd claims.

Chapter Thirty-Two: Why Don't Men Take My Hand?

"Wait, if it's about me changing my race, then I'd rather not."

Before Xia Yan could answer, Suzuki Satoru scratched his face with one finger, making a preemptive statement.

Suzuki Satoru was well aware that the World Item capable of transforming the undead into other races was in Natsuhiko's possession.

After all, that item was the main reason why Xia Yan had such exaggerated basic attributes.

Suzuki Satoru refused to change his race, not because he was particularly obsessed with playing the role of the undead, but because his own character, whether in terms of racial or professional rank, was entirely constructed around the undead.

It's already quite lucky that he was able to play this purely entertainment-oriented structure, designed for fun, to the point of reaching a mid-to-high level in the game.

Once changes are made, it won't necessarily lead to a complete collapse like dominoes.

However, their combat strength will be reduced by at least half.

Of course, only combat strength is reduced.

For Suzuki Satoru, who has mastered more than 700 different spells, in terms of functionality, he is still among the strongest.

Although he had only been in this world for three days, he instinctively and without being taught understood that powerful strength was essential to thrive in a world of swords and magic.

"Oh——"

"Not bad, not bad! You realized the importance of strength so quickly. It seems you have quite a talent, Wu! That's right! In a world with such great individual differences, strength is the key to survival!"

"But don't worry, I know your situation well, why would I do something that puts the cart before the horse?"

Xia Yan raised an eyebrow, his tone slightly teasing.

"Haha, that's true... After all, Xia Yanjun's choices are always the most perfect."

Honestly, what am I thinking? How could Xia Yanjun possibly overlook something like this!

Suzuki Satoru scratched his head and let out a silly laugh, while inwardly complaining about how he actually thought Natsuhiko would make a mistake.

I should trust Xia Yanjun more!

After reinforcing the idea in his mind as if through self-hypnosis, an overwhelming excitement surged forth, and the little red dot in his dark eye sockets trembled incessantly.

Even though the frequency of the green light flashing around his body was enough to cause someone to have an epileptic seizure, it still couldn't stop his ecstasy.

As a man, Xia Yan understood this.

Nonsense.

Although Suzuki Satoru didn't say it aloud, it was clear that he couldn't possibly be indifferent to this matter.

Of course, this doesn't apply to Americans.

After all, it's a magical country with ninety-seven genders, where you can't assume that anyone identifies with a particular gender in their heart.

"The method is actually very simple; you just haven't thought of it because you've gotten stuck on a nitpicky point."

Suzuki Satoru didn't speak, but just looked at Natsuhiko with great emotion.

Seeing his anticipation, Xia Yan didn't tease him or keep him in suspense, and told him directly.

"You can just change your character's appearance, right?"

"……what?"

Suzuki Satoru tilted his head, momentarily unable to understand why changing his character's appearance could alter his absurd situation.

But he immediately realized what was happening.

"Yeah! All I need to do is change my character's outfit! I'm so..." A forced, wry smile appeared on the skull face, devoid of any flesh or blood.

At that moment, Suzuki Satoru realized that the difference between people's minds can sometimes be greater than the difference between a person and a dog.

He fell into a logical fallacy.

They equated the birth of Little Gigi with turning themselves from the dead into the living, which is why they had reservations.

But in reality, these are two completely different things.

Loosely speaking, vampires can also be considered a category of the undead.

Judging from Shalltear's behavior, it is clear that she has this kind of desire, both physiologically and psychologically.

Not only Shalltear, but even Suzuki Satoru himself could sense that he actually had this kind of desire in his heart. When he saw the homunculus maid with a great figure walk by, he would also have the urge to touch her.

However, out of consideration for the Supreme Being's reputation, or perhaps out of a guilty conscience, they did not act in accordance with the law.

Even though she knew that the other party would never refuse if she asked, she still never brought it up.

After all, there are still people in this world he cares about...

These aspects alone are enough to prove that the undead also have this need.

The only problem to overcome is that it's a pure skeleton; while the software has the capability, the hardware doesn't support this functionality.

Now, Xia Yan's suggestion has filled his last gap in knowledge.

The variety of character outfits in the game YGGDRASIL is beyond most people's imagination.

Take the angel race as an example. You can mold yourself into a bird-man with long white wings and an LED light tube on your head, or a monster that is almost identical to the one in the game, or a bizarre monster from the Old Testament that makes people lose their sanity just by looking at it.

You can even mold yourself into a pink kidney with a branch stuck in it.

All of these are included in the category of angels.

What restricts players' appearance is actually their own aesthetic sense, creativity, and imagination.

Although Suzuki Satoru's base race is Skeleton Mage, his current Ghost Rider-like pure skeleton appearance is entirely his own choice and not due to racial restrictions.

If he wanted, even if he had sculpted the character into a human model with half a skeleton and half a muscle when he created it, he would still be considered a skeleton mage.

Xia Yan's words were like opening the door to a new world for Suzuki Satoru. In a short moment, dozens of outfits had already appeared in his mind.

Some even had the bizarre idea of ​​becoming a skeleton with nails on its head.

In the end, however, he decided to restore his appearance before he transmigrated.

Although biotechnology is quite advanced in the 22nd century, even for the poor, changing their appearance does not require a high cost.

But after all, this face has been with him for over thirty years. Although it's not perfect, he's long been used to it.

If you make a sudden change, he'll feel even more uncomfortable than with his original skull face.

After considering all the subjective factors in advance, only one objective factor remains.

"But since we came to this world, there's been no system or control interface. How are we supposed to change our character's appearance again...?"

Suzuki Satoru scratched his smooth head again, his tone slightly embarrassed.

In the game, it's easy to change your character's appearance, with all sorts of random items available, basically catering to anyone's unique aesthetic.

However, if he wants to completely change the character's appearance as he needs now, there are generally only two ways.

In the nine worlds of YGGDRASIL, each world has a unique NPC.

Its purpose is specifically for players to customize their characters' appearance.

After all, as a game with a high degree of freedom, although it mainly focuses on action-adventure, due to its rich costume system, many players still treat it like a dress-up game.

The ability to change a character's appearance is naturally essential.

To change your appearance, you first need to accept a quest from an NPC that is not too difficult but has a slightly tedious process.

This has drawn a lot of complaints from players on the forums.

The operators quickly incorporated the players' feedback and subsequently launched a new feature.

Pay-to-win character customization.

By simply making a small, inexpensive purchase compared to other paid items, you can skip the complicated quest process and directly customize your character's appearance.

They also launched a bunch of decorative props that were not very practical, but had amazing special effects and were quite expensive.

After this feature was launched, the criticism on the forums became even fiercer...

The game presents a thriving atmosphere.

"Just make a wish upon a star. Considering that gaining experience in this world might be troublesome, it's better to use paid items. I remember your Meteor Ring should still be usable three more times in its brand new state."

"Oh right! I almost forgot about this magic..."

Suzuki Satoru suddenly realized.

The Super Magic ability allows you to make a wish upon a star. In the game, this is represented by consuming experience points and choosing the desired wish from several randomly selected wishes.

Rumor has it that a magic caster even used this spell to turn the tide of a game and single-handedly defeat a world champion.

However, although at first glance its power seems very strong, even comparable to world items, it is actually a very useless magic.

It's fair to say that very few spellcasters would include this spell in their normal skill sequence.

The reason is simple: it's too much of a gamble, and the chances of losing are far greater than the actual results.

This spell consumes experience points based on a percentage; the higher the percentage of experience points consumed, the more wishes you can choose from.

If you consume 10%, there's only one option; if you consume 50%, there will be five options.

However, this is a super-tier spell that can only be learned by a magic caster at level 95. Even though leveling up in YGGDRASIL is not very difficult, reaching this level requires a massive amount of experience points.

Moreover, the options obtained are not fixed, but are randomly drawn from the available wish options.

According to statistics from strategy websites, there are more than two hundred wishes to choose from, including the option to re-customize one's character's appearance.

However, many of them are completely useless and purely for comedic effect.

A hapless guy on the website once posted a screenshot showing that he used this magic to gamble his way up from level 100 to level 80, only to find that the options that appeared were all useless and pointless.

This includes, but is not limited to, having your tongue grow three times longer, having the word "deer" appear on your head as a special effect, and receiving a duck headgear, etc...

As a result, many magic-casting players who want to change their profession but don't want to lose experience by dying will choose to learn this skill specifically to lose levels.

As a paid item, the Meteor Ring allows you to make three wishes to the stars without consuming experience points.
